Hitler the Scientist

Meer over het boek

The book explores the profound impact of Hitler's flawed education on his understanding of science and technology, which he distorted to fit his ideologies. Struggling with traditional science, he embraced pseudo-science and the occult, leading to a rejection of Jewish contributions to physics, notably Einstein's relativity. As the Nazis politicized science, they prioritized experimental physics, which contributed to the war effort through unconventional research. This reliance on alternative facts ultimately undermined Germany's scientific achievements, setting the stage for the Third Reich's decline.
